For storyteller to use as a reference
|
The character gains one or more Stains (p. 239) from their monstrous action.
|
|
The character breaches the Masquerade, as they visibly demonstrate supernatural strength or speed, or leave gaping bite wounds in a body.
|
|
The character loses one dot from an Advantage. For example, you might have totaled your Bugatti (squandering Resources), crippled a Retainer, offended an Ally, or just lost Status in court fol lowing your outburst. Although the character still needs to spend time (in a later scene or in the background) to take action to repair the dot, the Storyteller can allow the loss to recover more quickly than other vanished dots.
|
|
If none of the above conditions fit the narrative, such as on stealth or awareness tests, the character must act out a Compulsion (see below), or the test fails completely as the Beast clouds their senses.
|
|
The character must act out a Compulsion, as the Blood starts to subtly dictate their actions. (see below)
|
|
he character loses a dot in an Advantage as on a messy critical.
|
|
The character suffers one or more points of Ag gravated Health damage. This result works well for bestial failures on resistance rolls, as the character breaks out in bloody sweat from the stress.
|
|
If no-one in the troupe can come up with a good idea, the Hunger increases by one. If this result would take their Hunger above 5, the character immediately rolls to resist hunger frenzy (p. 220) at Difficulty 4.
|
|
Hunger
|
When they perform any action not immediately conducive to feeding at a two-dice penalty to their pools. This Compulsion ends when the vampire slakes at least 1 Hunger level
|
|
Dominance
|
The vampire makes their next interaction into a competition, using all means at their disposal to end up victorious and to rub the nose of the loser in their defeat. T he vampire cannot use teamwork and performs any action that avoids establishing dominance or challenging authority at a two-dice penalty to their pools. This Com pulsion ends when the vampire has “won” and gloated over it.
|
|
Harm
|
T he vampire performs all ac tions not immediately resulting in someone or something getting harmed at a two-dice penalty to their pool. This Compulsion ends when the vampire incapacitates, destroys, or drives away a target. If the vampire turns on an object, it must hold serious value to someone the vampire ordinarily values, such as themselves.
|
|
Paranoia
|
he vampire tries to disengage from any perceived threat, suspect ing anyone and anything. Any action not taken toward that im mediate end incurs a two-dice pen alty. The Compulsion ends when the vampire has spent roughly an hour in a safe spot: e.g., a rooftop with good visibility, their haven, or buried deep underground.
|
|
Ravanos-Tempting Fate
|
When faced with their next problem, the Daredevil must attempt the solution with the most dangerous or daring of actions, anything less incurs a two-dice penalty. Context appropriate flashy or risky attempts may even net bonus dice. They are free to convince others to follow them in their actions but may as well go it alone. This Compulsion persists until the problem is solved or further attempts become impossible to accomplish.
|
|
Stains
|
Stains are what damage Humanity and are caused by significant actions. Those actions may include embracing a new childe, harming a touchstone, breaching their own convictions or the chronicle tenets. Tenet Stains can be negated by a character's Conviction if it was broken in alignment of their Conviction, reducing the amount of Stains gained by one or more. The amount of Stains earned can vary from clear violations giving only 1 and with truly monstrous or egregious breaks netting 2 or more. Fill the amount of Stains exceeds the amount of empty spaces in the tracker degeneration is triggered
|
|
Remorse
|
When a character has Stains in their tracker at the end of a session they will make a Remorse test. The Remorse pool is composed of how many empty spaces are left between the Humanity and the amount of Stains taken. In the case of a Humanity 7 character with only one Stain, they'd roll two dice. However, in cases where there are no spaces left, such as a Humanity 7 character with three Stains, they'd still roll 1 die. Any amount of successes means that the character has felt enough guilt, shame and remorse than their Humanity will not drop. If they do not any successes, the beast has won and they must drop 1 Humanity. Once the remorse test is completed, all Stains are removed.[
|
|
Degeneration
|
In cases where they have taken more Stains than they have room for, the character becomes impaired. This type of impairment removes two dice from all possible pools as they are racked with regret. In addition to this, they take one point of Aggravated Willpower damage for each Stain that did not fit onto the tracker. During this time, the character is unable of further intentional Tenet violations and upon being forced to commit one must test for a terror frenzy with Difficulty 4. This impairment will remain until they test for Remorse at the end of the session, alternatively they may choose to snap out of it by automatically dropping by one Humanity point and removing all Stains
